CHA4042 Cults of RuneQuest: The Prosopaedia (2023)


Cults of RuneQuest: The Prosopaedia is the first in the new Cults of RuneQuest sourcebook series for the RuneQuest TTRPG. This book is an indispensable reference to the many gods and goddesses, monsters, locations, artifacts, and events that have shaped mythology in the world of RuneQuest since its making!

  • An encyclopedia to the gods of the fantasy world of Glorantha
  • A companion book to the other volumes in the Cults of RuneQuest line makes it essential for collectors
  • New RuneQuest players will find an easy-to-follow and evocative description of the pantheons of Glorantha

This book contains no rules mechanics, and will appeal to those with an interest in creative mythology, or looking to inject full pantheons of established gods into their existing roleplaying campaigns.
